Lieutenant Commander Forrest Perkins is haunted by ghosts. He's lost his ship and most of his crew, he's been accused of being an enemy agent, and the woman he has come to love has been officially declared dead. He's a man with nothing left to lose... which is why he's about to do the unthinkable. His plan is simple: steal a prototype warship, assemble a crew, and hunt down the man behind all this: Marius Giovanni. To do that, he's going to have to find a place whose location is shrouded in mystery. It's a star system that has been erased from the star charts, a star system of ancient alien ruins, rumored to be haunted and cursed, and a place where death and misery befalls all who venture there. Forrest will have to go to the Ghost Star. Where better to bring the woman he loves back from the dead?
